Hi Bruce, I uploaded AMD X2 results to Yahoo groups, file name MMBV112_AMDX2_D6toD2005_WinXP.zip (That isn't complete, slowest DKC and EWC are missing) I noticed one problem. X2 CPU is running at 2200 MHz and MM B&V detect code sees it sometimes as mhz="2211,3347", mhz="2131,8800" etc, small differences every time. Reporter has some problems finding all those results because the mhz number is different every time.

ProgressReport is just showing the CPU details as a sanity check for the user and not as a unique identifier. I'm using the file name for that. This will change later when the code name can be reliably decoded. -- Regards, Bruce McGee Glooscap Software Back to top Jouni Turunen Guest Posted: Tue Jan 24, 2006 7:35 pm    Post subject: Re: New ProgressReporter for the Memory Manager challenge Bruce McGee wrote: Quote: Thanks. Will you also be publishing the DKC and EWC tests? For X2 probably yes, I try to. Also try same with AMD XP. But it will take a several days as DKC MM is that speedy.

I was supposed to publish a new B&V and ProgressReport tool yesterday, but got held up. I'll try to put them up tonight. Are you using the batch files or are you running all of the tests individually? -- Regards, Bruce McGee Glooscap Software Back to top Jouni Turunen Guest Posted: Tue Jan 24, 2006 9:04 pm    Post subject: Re: New ProgressReporter for the Memory Manager challenge Bruce McGee wrote: Quote: Tell me about it. :) :) Quote: Oh, and don't forget FastMM3.

Hi Bruce, Did you notice this when you looked at the X2 file, latest ProgressReporter for example says: "D6 BUCKETMM DLL Validation : Done Regular Validation: Not Done Extra Validation : Not Done" All three validations are in the file but reporter finds only the DLL validation result.

I'll take a look today. -- Regards, Bruce McGee Glooscap Software Back to top Bruce McGee Guest Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2006 10:11 am    Post subject: Re: New ProgressReporter for the Memory Manager challenge Jouni Turunen wrote: Quote: Hi Bruce, Did you notice this when you looked at the X2 file, latest ProgressReporter for example says: "D6 BUCKETMM DLL Validation : Done Regular Validation: Not Done Extra Validation : Not Done" All three validations are in the file but reporter finds only the DLL validation result. Regards, Jouni Found it. It's possible for the XML to get out of whack, combined with a bug in ProgressReport. Whoops... There's a new version of ProgressReport on the Yahoo groups site that fixes this. -- Regards, Bruce McGee Glooscap Software Back to top Bruce McGee Guest Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2006 10:16 am    Post subject: Re: New ProgressReporter for the Memory Manager challenge Dennis wrote: Quote: Forget about DKC MM If I understand it properly, if results for any MM aren't present for any platform, that MM fails validation.

It's less a matter of doing more testing on more platforms than making sure we have complete tests on the platforms that are available. You know my thinking on the subject, but I'm open to suggestions. It will be better in the 2006 challenge. -- Regards, Bruce McGee Glooscap Software Back to top Dennis Guest Posted: Wed Jan 25, 2006 11:55 am    Post subject: Re: New ProgressReporter for the Memory Manager challenge Hi Bruce Quote: If I understand it properly, if results for any MM aren't present for any platform, that MM fails validation. Is that right? Strictly speaking yes. But I think we have a practical problem getting all the validations run. I run complete sets with all MM's included, but I do not think that I will install every OS on every target PC. Í looks like I am not going to get much help. I am currently running Win98 on one target and I am planning to install a few other OS's on it too. I am also planning to install Win64 on the Opteron 165 when I get it. This leaves many combinations of OS's and CPU's untested. It is fair to concentrate on the important MM's, because they are so much faster to test. I am not quite sure how to handle the situation.

Hi Dennis, I think that it's not even possible to install every OS to every target PC. I think that most new motherboards like NVidia Nforce 4 that I have in AMD X2 don't have driver / OS support for anything older than Win 2000. Intel still supports Win 98 in Centrino platform. My opinion about Win 95 support is that it can be dropper as Microsoft has done so and Borland has done so too. Perhaps validations of some old OS can be done inside VMWare? That way it's not needed to install OS, it runs for example inside normal Win XP session.
